General Info

About Prairie UU Society Prairie Unitarian Universalist Society is a freethinking religious community in Madison Wisconsin. We aspire to be both open-hearted and open-minded. We welcome those who enter our doors with any combination of strengths and weaknesses, beliefs and doubts. Our children receive liberal religious education as we model values in our search for truth and meaning. Prairie is a small, lay-lead liberal congregation. The congregation is a member of Unitarian Universalist Association. We members hold differing religious beliefs, but our shared principles affirm the worth and dignity of all persons, the need for justice and compassion, a free and responsible search for truth and meaning, and a respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part. We choose to be in a community for the development and values education of our children. As UU's, we believe that personal experience, conscience and reason should be the final authorities in religion. We are a "Welcoming Congregation" that opens each Sunday morning service with words similar to the following: "Prairie is a liberal lay-led congregation. You are welcome, whatever your ethnic background or color ; whatever your religious background, age, or sexual orientation ; whatever your abilities or inabilities."
